CSS -ALUMNI FEBRUARY BLOG HOP

Welcome to Stamp TV's CSS Alumni Sketch Blog Hop for February . Today's gorgeous inspiration challenge photo is provided by Karen Knegten.You should have arrived here from the very talented Joy.

For my card I was inspired by the boats and the colors. I used Gina's "Enjoy The Sunshine" and Theresa's " Aloha" stamps, both are by Gina K. Designs. Card stock and ribbon are from GKD. The images were colored with Copic's. Sponging was done with Memento on pure luxury CS by GKD.Now doesn't this look like a place to be?

You will want to leave a comment as you hop along because on Tuesday morning (February 14), we will randomly choose one of the comments from all the blogs and that person will receive a huge grab bag of fabulous Gina K. Designs Stamps!The next stop ON THE HOP is the ever so talented Cheri. If you came here without stopping, you can start at STAMP TV.

I want to be on that boat. It looks so calm and peaceful and warm. I love the colors. This is a great masculine card.I tried to comment while I was on the hop, but for some reason didn't see the publish button. I wasn't sure if the comment got recorded so I came back to tell you what a great card this is.

Hi, Gerri - I absolutely love your version of the challenge (should I even bother entering... naaaa).Everything about your card pulls at my heart strings. Couldn't improve on it if you wanted to. Hugs, Rosy

What a beautiful take on the challenge! I love the rich, muted color palette, that pretty striped patterned paper, and how your coloring makes the sailboat & sea look like they are glowing... nicely done!

I really loved your card but I have to tell you I also really enjoyed your interactive kitty cat! We have a tuxedo cat that looks just like that and I can't wait to show my daughter your cat when she gets home from school today :-)
